Problems and Opportunities

Priority Problems for seeds include lack of awareness of benefits of certified seed (as well as how to determine certification and quality), seed saving methodology, lack of access to and use of certified seed, lack of awareness of seed saving methods, and limited access to improved varieties.

Priority Opportunities include availability of improved varieties adapted to local conditions, awareness of seed saving best practices, increased awareness of certified seed benefits, increased understanding of how to identify certified seeds when purchasing, and improved access to certified seed adapted to local conditions.

These draft priority problems are based on feedback from agricultural consultants and Afghan specialists, including Sharif Shah Reshteen.
